Have you ever been to a live auction? What was your best pickup from it?

[@lvtrashpanda]

I've done some silent auctions and won a couple of cool things, mostly records and rock/metal tees, but that was before my days as a reseller.

[@pickingandpunching]

@@lvtrashpanda I have done bid boards and silent auctions. They are fun but not as fun as live auctions.

[@agood100]

I was at a local weekly one and purchased tons of stuff from it. Best thing I ever purchased was a gold diamond ring for my (now ex) wife. Wish I got it back. :(

[@pickingandpunching]

@@agood100 they are awesome! Sorry to hear about the wife situation.

[@scarter8137]

Been to several, love going even if I don’t bid. Did purchase a Lladro figurine for $75 a few years back.

[@johndesposito1475]

They are called Daguerreotype's (the small old photo's from 1800's). Most had covers that folded down to protect the glass over the photo. 🙂

[@pickingandpunching]

Thank you for your info!

[@pickingandpunching]

I have sold a bunch of them in the past. They usually sell high at the auction though. I do pick them up a lot at garage sales.

[@shawnaspade2577]

First time watching. Loved it! I grew up in Wyoming, auctions were the THING back them. Started going to with my dad when I was like 5 and I'm 58. Lol lol The reason for auctions back then was super cheap prices. That has all changed. Now I live in Alaska, all online auctions now. Still love them though. Lol

[@pickingandpunching]

Growing up my dad used to take me to the auction. He had a hauling business and he was able to move a bunch of items fast. I had a blast going with him.

[@bobman-lo8hc]

Lots of neat stuff there. I bought some Jarts at a thrift store about 10 years ago. After finding out they were banned and not legal to sell I cut them up and tossed them in the trash. Although some platforms allow you to resell them. I would not take the chance as you can be hit with a costly lawsuit if somebody gets injured playing with them. I have since taken out extra liability insurance for peace on mind from lawsuits for anything I resell.

[@pickingandpunching]

Sale reason why I won’t try to sell them as well. It’s just not worth it.

[@theshabbyvintagebelle1875]

I love auctions….we don’t have them in our area anymore…thanks for the video

[@bigmeech3620]

Its insane i go to auctions aswell nowadays and its rough to get deals anywhere nowadays....wether it be yard sales auctions e state sales ect....the competition for retro games specifically has gone through the roof even the grandmauls and grandpauls are starting to buy retro games and 95% are buying to flip....which is what it is

[@pickingandpunching]

You are right! It’s crazy and so much harder out there. I used to resell nothing but video games. I had to pivot and change my business model up due to the fact it was getting harder and harder to find stuff.

[@chrisweekly]

You should call your show the- -I Overpay For Everything Show!!

[@pickingandpunching]

We were planning on calling it “I Sometimes Overpay For Everything Show” but the name was to long to fit on the coffee mug merchandise. 🤷‍♂️

[@Sillysoft]

I picked up a huge lot of video game stuff including an NES for 50 bucks. The NES worked, but had the issue where you had to make the game go in tight for it to work. So being me, I decided to take it apart and clean the pins and made it worse lol. Should get the new 72 pin connector today and replace it and get it over with. I am assuming the original 72 pin had issues and me cleaning it just brought out the issues you would see down the line as you play the system more. I am hoping that is the case actually... But yeah I took it apart, cleared out all the dust, took the 72 pin off, cleaned the contacts on the main board, it was VERY dirty. I mean black soot was coming off of it. I then cleaned the pins the best I could, even ended up putting it in boiling water. I have done that plenty of times with great results.

[@pickingandpunching]

From my experience, most NES issues are fixed with a quick 72 pin swap out. I love the NES system.

cool that you found something for your own collection . Never been to a live auction looks fun

[@pickingandpunching]

It was so much fun and nerve racking at the same time. If you do go, be careful not to get caught up in the moment and spend more than you want.

[@bb37804]

Yes! Please go again... it was great to see what was there. I could kick myself in the butt for tossing or giving away so much vintage when I cleared out my Grandparents house several years ago. Thanks for sharing the experience with us!!

[@pickingandpunching]

I’ll go back in the next couple of weeks and see what I can find!

[@scarter8137]

Yoy cant sell jarts period or any recalled product (except cars) seller can be held liable for injurt caused by sale of product

Definitely a cool set up. Those wildcats toys caught my eye. Great pick up by the way I off loaded my whole nes collection 2 years ago

[@pickingandpunching]

It was def a cool experience. What was in your NES collection that you sold?

[@regalseagullGA]

I'd be all over those funko pops!

[@pickingandpunching]

I was planning on it but they went like $7-$8 a piece and you had to take them all. I did look a bunch of them up. There was a ton of $8-$10 ones in that lot. Just not enough meat on the bone to resale.

[@regalseagullGA]

@@pickingandpunching definitely understandable. Pops can be very hit and miss. Box condition is crazy important as well.

[@chaicharin]

Was it worth spending all day at the auction for a small purchase like that?

[@pickingandpunching]

Great question. With any auction you run a risk of spending a lot of time and walking away with nothing. I was buying these mainly for my personal collection and I had fun. At the end of the day, was it worth the amount of time, no. I spent about 4 hours there. If I would of won all the figures, then it would of. They just went for too much money.

[@1968Underdog]

You can sell the jacks box and the loop inside and make reference to the set is complete, not shown and you can get around it

If you have any questions, about most any subject (except dolls or video gaming stuff) feel free to text me. My son has many older games from the 80's & 90's he won't let me sell for him (go figure). I have been working live auctions (buying & selling) for over 40 years. I am currently a consultant for a couple of online Auction houses in Southern CA. I have also done 'triagef' works for the Antiques Roadshow (US version). Visuals are hard, and handling the items are always better. Knowing your current trends, both geographically and by timelines are critical to consistent sales of inventory. Do your 'homework', and read, read, read from the experts.
